Every BlackBerry smartphone is different, but none include a feature that allows you to set a time on your camera for self or group shots. The default camera setup is point and shoot; if you want to use a camera timer, you will need to download an app that supports the feature via the BlackBerry World store. There are several apps from which to choose.

Camera Timer - Silent Camera (Free)

1. Open the Camera Timer - Silent Camera app by selecting it on your BlackBerry home screen.

2. Set the “Photos” value to 1. Set the “Delay” value to the amount of time you need to position your picture -- this app supports a delay of up to 20 seconds.

3. Select “Capture Image,” move into position, and wait for the camera to take the photo.

Camera Timer Free (Free)
